I remember Richard Chamberlain best from his television work, particularly the mini-series, Shogun, a huge success at the time. Never saw Dr. Kildare. I’ve seen 5 of the films on the list: The Music Lovers, a rather disturbing biography of Tchaikovsky with Chamberlain memorable as the great composer, The Towering Inferno, The Last Wave and the two musketeers films. My favorite is probably The Three Musketeers in which I thought Chamberlain was perfect as Aramis. At 86, Chamberlain still does some occasional roles. Twin Peaks fans (like myself) may remember he made a brief appearance in an episode of the 2017 return of the show.
I saw Richard Chamberlain in Blithe Spirit on Broadway with Geraldine Page. Geraldine passed during the run of the show.
Also saw Dick at Barnes & Nobles signing books.
I have Richard’s big album from 1962 featuring the theme from Dr. KIldare and his exciting rendition of Hi-Lili, Hi-lo. The Dr. Kildare theme is one of my favorite them songs from a series. Alas I watched the show once and that was more than enough. Sort of like TJ Hooker.
